Always has been.

There's been a lot of fear mongering and misinformation about drugs since Nixon popularized the puritanical "all drugs are bad" idea in the 70s.

The reality is much more complex. There are all kinds of recreational drugs out there that can be taken safely without lasting damage or long term effects.

Many are actually safer than alcohol, some even offer significant benefits to mental and physical health if taken responsibly (see psychedelic use to combat depression, anxiety, and PTSD). And on the flip side, there are all kids of drugs that will fuck your body and life right up by either damaging your body and/or causing chemical dependancy.

Education is the key to determining which drugs are safe to take responsibility, and which drugs are not, and ensuring your environment is safe before dosing anything is also critical to safety.

Belive it or not, alchool is even more normalised (which is arguably worse than many drugs)

Because drugs can be a hell of a lot fun if done safely. Obviously depends on the drug. Also, nothing has “become” so normalised because humans have been doing various drugs for thousands of years.

I’m not saying it’s for everyone, but I am saying that there must be something to it or people wouldn’t do it.

Ehh, this feels like some kinda survivorship bias / frequency fallacy. I'd argue the people that post and leave comments on social media are already way outside of the norm. It is a power law distribution when it comes to social media participation. Your outliers in this case are very likely outliers in other ways such as in opinions/thinking, risk taking, etc. Drugs really aren't all that normalized. Sure all my friend circle is full of degenerates, but I am still going to be guarded about my "hobbies" when meeting new people.

I dunno, but most things are safer than alcohol.

Only for your ego
